- 0:14.820 no 16th here despite being used later at 0:36.382.

- i really liked the jumps at 0:49.156, but it feels like there should be more of them throughout this section. places like 0:53.374 or 0:56.656 (lol) or even 0:59.937. I really provides that contrast between the muted notes and the accented ones that i think should be used more.

- 1:21.499 This pattern is quite the spike in difficulty. not only is this sudden jacks, but also heavy on the left hand as well. Considering how rare minijacks are in this i think its best to balance out the hands a bit more. something like 11332244 is a great pattern for easy repeated minijacks.

- 1:36.734 Not a huge fan of this fade out. I feel like the audio could've been cut better. In general i think fade outs should be avoided when possible.

i'll be honest. I think solely focusing on percussion for the majority of this chart wasn't the right call. Personally i feel like following the guitar would be the better call, and make for the more interesting chart. The guitar is the focus of the song at many points but the chart just focuses on the percussion instead. 0:15.874 for example having to time the syncopation is more interesting to me than constant 4th with the occasional 8th burst. Each section that passes it feels like the focus should be more on the guitar, especially when that is what is changing in the song. the drum rhythm is basically the same thing throughout with a few changes. 0:38.843 has this cool guitar rhythm that is the right difficulty for the chart but gets ignored for 4ths. 0:46.343 also has cymbal ticks that you could argue should be charted as well as the guitar stuff everything is basically the same rhythm, but the chart doesn't follow it. The chart is fine, its consistent and follows the music but i feel like it could've been better.

Fire It Up (Rapta) [7.5/10]

PERMS OK
SYNC OK

The chart lacks some PR structure in a few areas. In these notes are some PR elements to notice that can be used to give a consistent and coherent structure to the PR.

1.109 & 2.515: These are much closer sounds than 1.109 & 1.812, yet the chart puts the latter pair on the same column.

3.218 & 3.687: There is no other "minijack" like this in the whole intro (except 7.671 & 8.140 which are correct), so this feels arbitrary.

13.296: This is the only 8th-to-4th in this section of three repetitions that goes right-to-left, yet nothing musically or structurally (in the rest of the chart) justifies it.

28.999: These four isolated 4ths on column 1 are really catchy.

31.812: This 8th minijacks theme is great.

36.734: This and the following 4th could be moved to 23 instead of 12 to alleviate column 1.

41.890: When you look at 30.874 & 34.390 which are the same jump for that sound, since you went with (13) at 38.140, this should probably also be a (13) for better structure.

53.374: Considering the consecutive 4ths jumps at 49.156, this could definitely be a jump. The lyrics differ and the instruments arent the same exact intensity, but these sounds are still very prominent locally.

57.124: Same as 53.374.

Pretty catchy song and chart, with fun rhythms being layered and plenty of variety. With a bit of polish this would be quite enjoyable.

Suggest taking a look/making minimal changes, similar to another file I mentioned in-batch, since this is a Change Recommended, and not a 'Fixes Required'.

If there's no response on this then no problem, will honor Stepauthor request to reject files needing fixes.

Moving file to rejected.
